What is the proper way to markup a note that reiterates only a part
of a verse and that part is the start of a quotation which use <q> in
the verse?
Example:
The note is: (where {} indicate italics)
Lit {saying, ``The}
The only things I can come up with are:
1) Don't use the quote element in notes.
Lit <hi type="italic">saying,“The</hi>
2) Use milestoned version of the <q> element
Lit <hi type="italic">saying, <q marker="“" level="1" sID="xxx"/
>The</hi>
3) Use a continuation mark:
Lit <hi type="italic">saying, <milestone marker="“" type="cQuote"/
>The</hi>
4) Use milestoned version of the <q> element and close the element by
changing the publisher's material, adding an ellipsis.
Lit <hi type="italic">saying, <q marker="“" level="1" sID="xxx"/
>The ...<q marker="" level="1" eID="xxx"/></hi>
Note: All of these work in Sword just fine. None of them seem quite
right to me. I'm inclined to do 2.
